maybe starting in 2025
Pulse is an electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) model
capable of carrying one first responder plus equipment, with a payload
of 330 pounds. It is designed to fly anywhere within a 31 sm (27 nm)
radius in eight minutes or less. The idea is for the aircraft—which
reaches a top speed of 250 knots—to be dispatched alongside an
ambulance so it can arrive at the scene first, and the
pilot-turned-paramedic can begin first aid. It will come equipped with
a heart monitor, automated CPR machine, oxygen supply, and other
life-saving tools.
